You are 100% right. I have watched both processes. Both have the same outcome. The vacuum just speeds up the process.

Have you ever had to bag up debris on a scene and then take it somewhere to spread it out to go through it. This is when the vacuum idea is at its best. Yea, on the scene might not be the greatest but where ever you do it between screens and the vacuum I will say I believe the vacuum is much better.

I would suggest that those that are involved with different organizations or chapters of an organization may what to have one of the individuals that wrote the article give a talk or even demonstrate the use of the vacuum.
